Cool man, thx for the build log.

Anyone know of a gen II busa build? I'm working on one right now and am curious how they might have done the fuel system...

The gen II has "returnless"... this is proving to be a little annoying considering I am not using the hayabusa fuel pump (which is really a return system but the return is inside the tank). So far the only option I've found is using an external fuel pump and a fuel pressure regulator... The only setup I can find with an fittings (I am using a fuel cell) looks to be around $350 usd...

Newer miatas are also return-less...I re-used most of my miata fuel parts except for the pump; I mounted a Bosch pump externally, but used the Miata return-less fuel pressure regulator to just dump back into the top of the fuel tank. IMO it was fairly simple and didn't cost anything extra (except for the pump)

Thanks guys... I guess I was sort of wondering If anyone had just set the regulator back at the tank and dumped straight back in to avoid running an extra 10ft of line by that very dangerous driveshaft... I was hoping this would be an option since the gen II busa wouldn't need the regulator referenced to the mani at all.

I suppose the line loss would be dynamic as the flow rate is constantly varying with engine load so the regulator needs to be right by the engine though.


Anyways, enough hijacking.

More Updates! I am loving this build so far, reminds me so much of what I hope my build is going to come out like.

I asked you a question on your blog that you might not have seen... found my answer here: http://www.suzukihayabusa.org/forum/index.php?topic=148827.0


Looks like you need to add a catch can with a breather between your crankcase breather plate and the top fitting of your oil tank!

That damn cyberspace.... I also asked SBD about this a while back and when just now looking for your email I found a reply from them.

It appears that they have appended their Dry Sump Install manual sometime between 6/22/11 (the date I last printed it out) and now. There is now quite a bit of extra elaboration on venting, and they plainly state what you and I both already know (now at least).

Gary ( auto sparks ) is a legend and can interface most of the 'Comon bike enginges' to the MNR loom and without referancing the manual. Genuine car entusiast as well.
